Ever heard of nitpicking?
playing cuckshit
expecting good writing
two strikes already
Umineko and Higurashi left me unable to read literature without a fitting background music
Translator was a straight white male unafraid to say faggot
These were better times.
the writing is good
Only easily impressed teenagers think of it. Novel idea with some interactivity and audiovisual elements makes them more interesting perhaps, but they're young adult tier at best
truly a lost art
read "good" fiction book written in modern times
the story is absolute ass it literally could be an anime and I wouldn't be able to tell the difference
Did everyone stop being able to write stories after the 1950s?
Bro, Nasu's writing is peak chuunikino
People who don't read aren't aware of just how low the bar for literature is right now.
One of the most celebrated classic stories of all time is a guy winning a duel by playing a gotcha on a prophecy because TECHNICALLY a c-section on a woman's corpse means that...
NTR
I would also argue that most people nowadays simply haven't lead interesting enough lives to reflect it in their writing. I don't mean to sound like a pretentious faggot but there's a reason why so many Slavic writers are jerked off so such high extents.
That hentai was hot though, especially the blowjob on the toilet.
I liked Saya and Shironogasu.
Agreed. I'm making indie comics with a friend and he held me in high regards for making stories despite me keep struggling to write down anything interesting enough for common folk because I'm a boring faggot.
I (probably) can write a story about a guy who's not good at anything but who wants to read that? Even VN protags have 1-2 special skill to help move the plot forward
Femoids
Only good VNs are yaoi
No exceptions
Sometimes visual novel writing really is amazing, even if just because the writers need to figure out a way to include sex scenes
Oh no, my little sister who tried to kill me just lost her postage stamp collection, the only way to fix this is to rail her in the ass!
We accidentally made a jihadi missile for our high school rocket building club, time to have sex to take our minds off this!
There's a sick drift coming up, quick suck my dick!
"Smells like the sun" is a common saying in Japanese meaning that the smell invokes the feelings of a fresh summer morning/day.
You can still get that in fan translations. The problem is that all the straight White males that read VNs have trooned out.
I (probably) can write a story about a guy who's not good at anything but who wants to read that?
I am a hero had a decently interesting attempt at that. Imo the true quality of a character comes through interaction with others.
femc NTR
I just want to be a total whore.
FanTLs dying in both anime and VNs has been a disaster. Look at Nekonyan's shitty memelations: every other line has to have retarded social media neologisms like "cringe" and "chad" shoved into it.
Ywnbaw tho
I tried playing Steins;Gate because it was supposed to be one of the best visual novels and it was completely unbearable to read through. Ended up dropping it after 10 hours, just a bunch of juvenile trash.
My list of VNs to read are:
Full Metal Daemon Muramasa
Bladr Sky
The VNs I've read so far are:
VA-11 HALL-A
Rate me
I miss TL note.
The TL Note also implies the translator doesn't have any familiarity with Japanese idioms. When someone "Smells like the sun" it means they smell like how plants, trees, grass, etc smell shortly after it stops raining and the sun comes out. It's a unique smell that's produced because of rain water mixing with natural oils that plants secrete, and many people find it pleasant. It's also common in Japan since during the summer months there are frequent, short bursts of rain, sometimes happening every day. But the weather clears just as quickly and so you get this smell a lot.
But I can smell objects and tell if they've been sun-kissed
That zombie manga? Wasn't the MC sort of good with gun tho?
that much corn can't be good for a cat
guy who spends his time translating cuckold porn for free calling anyone a beta pussy
my sides
This vn is actually pretty great.
Every time someone explains 'smells like the sun' they describe a different smell than the last person who tried to describe it.
Sure but I'd argue the main thing is him just having a gun at all compared to everyone else. Plus he's really autistic about even using it
I remember that line from somewhere.
Holy Fucking Kino thread?
friendly reminder that MomNTR is the best type of NTR
I dont know why, but for some reason I was really into VN's like 10-ish years ago. Some were pretty decent but nothing groundbreaking storywise.
But then all of a sudden it just hit me "holy shit these "games" fucking suck ass. Every other romance VN is exactly the same.
Hnnnnnnnngggrrrrrhhh...!
These look ai generated lmao
Down to book title and author name lmao.
What are they putting into it tho
Both of those are good and dare I say, I even like the gameplay portions of Baldr Sky. The story went on for way too long though. Its like Jesus Christ enough with the padding...
MomNTR is worse than scat.
I know. Do you also tell harry potter fans they will never be mages?
this pile shit is is the best smelling pile of shit
okay?
good books from white authors don't get published unless they're already extremely established
hell, most journals won't even consider you if you're not brown, a woman, or some flavor of gay
t. published author, took me years to get picked up on account of not liking penises in my butt
Have you ever thought that maybe your writing is just bad?
Yes, and then I have three separate editors come back and say it's great and they're not sure why nobody wants it (I'm not a woman or sufficiently brown)
I only read these games in Japanese.
Any VNs I can play where the purest form of romance (between siblings) is acknowledged?
And I'm not talking about that faggy dominant older sister or how you fuck all of your family like it's no big deal.
I mean a wholesome romance that might get frowned upon by society and is considered taboo. Please, Anons.. Help a brother out.
I had over 1TB of porn games and VNs i didn't even touched.
Is this the VN thread?
What's the go to place to grab them now. A couple of DDL sites I bookmarked got taken down and I can't find Holy Breaker! on rutracker or nyaa
You better to not know awl
Name? Is it loli?
I can't find Holy Breaker! on rutracker or nyaa
Probably too niche but I see link on nyaa.
Yeah, it's pretty niche and not porn to boot
Displaying results 0-0 out of 0 results.
Do they have a new domain or something? Damnit
Nyaa has 18+ version (sukebei nyaa).
For some reason it never crossed my mind to check there. Thanks, here's hoping it has a seeder
I tried playing Steins;Gate because it was supposed to be one of the best visual novels
It's not, if you're basing that on its high site rankings the story is heavily overrated in those places.
My niponese is ultra crude, is there something retard-tier enough you recommend?
Anki
one of the best visual novels
Try Dies irae. Unironically one of the most influential works out there. Like FSN, but better.
whats the VN?
Mojika.
VN is short for Visual Novel.
Being a joyless cunt doesn't make you interesting.
DONT READ IT, its the most despair inducing shit you will read ever
Man, what am I smoking of course they're fucking DEAD
Pfffft its the skim milk of nitroplus titles at best
I couldn't even finish the first route. It was too slop.
And now he is trans
Official TLs are worse. Case in point: Steins;Gate
Anime faggots have shit taste and can't be trusted, look up a variety of mid-to-high rated VNs on vndb that sound/look interesting to you, and you might find something good.
I'm not trying to be interesting, I was just looking for something to read.
Is dies irae worth reading if i want a dose chuuni kino injected right into my veins?
vndb
Muv luv is fucking garbage and was #1 for a long time
Shut up with this pretentious hipster bullshit, anon
I preferred the animation
I thought the romance was very nice.
Also Mao is LITERALLY me.
any vns where I can fuck gyarus, delinquents and/or traps?
Plenty of good lines in Higu and Umi
There is no lower brow literate than VNs. Literally feel myself getting stupider reading them. Just watch anime, at least there's animation that can distract from the writing.
Dies Irae is like a chu2 fentanyl megadose
Fatal Twelve, it has one loli character.
It was pretty well done.
play
visual novels
play
With yourself maybe ya lonely jackin' off BITCH.
Anons will say this and then next moment proceed to watch the Clannad and S;G anime.
Toh!
Yes but you have to turn your brain off and accept that literally everyone in it is batshit insane
I'm here to slay demons.
I'm also here to slay saints
YOOOOOOOOOOOOO
zako zako
Sometimes if you leave it running 24/7 for a few months you may have a miracle. Better start praying.
That's my point. NekoNyan are "official" translators that employ ironically unprofessional localisation practices.
Don't give me hope, faggot
I can't name a single living westoid author that's any good and I think I can only name 3 nip ones
Make some space, im delivering kino
he'd job to a yari ashigaru
guy with a katana slashes very fast mecha at incredible high speed
Not if he kills an innocent child first
All japslop is cuckshit tho and vee told me that japshit is good.
Deserved.
casually trying to kill you
the yari's reach will let them kill the child faster though, he has no chance
Don't be so pretentious, Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is a good laugh
What VN is that?
Also, Majikoi! Love Me Seriously!
is pure kino.
Most of this shot is slop
I've read Umineko and Fata Morgana which were worth and good in their own ways
Gonna try Raging Loop next but nothing really interests me that much...
Most of it is cheap romance slop or even cheaper shock value slop
Too obvious.
Smells like the sun
Probably more like "smells like sunshine" which is an expression used even in English. Autistic or ESL?
English is so cucked language you can't even say "Smells like the sun"
Shirou is a bit of a spaz but it's actually pretty fun to have a good guy be a rampant sexist.
He's right.
you can't even say "Smells like the sun"
You just said it in English. It's grammatically correct but sounds retarded when they obviously meant that it smells like sunshine.
Language translation isn't literal. Especially not from Japanese where context is heavily implied.
Now xe's trans with trolls remorse and a vandetta against people that remind xim of his old self. Still think tranime is good for you?
What the fuck were they thinking?
I don't want to shock you, but Douglas Adams has been dead for over two decades.
obviously meant that it smells like sunshine.
No. Sunshine is generic. Sun is powerful and artistic. You don't smell sunshine like a faggot. You smell plasma like a real man.
What's a good VN if I want to romance a hag/MILF/Mature woman?
Oh I missed the living part, my bad
Ok Hanz. Have fun being autistic.
Thomas "Ruggles" Pynchon

like on fucking goodreads? please tell me you didn't actually look them up on goodreads
funny you say that because he also translated an yaoi eroge
I googled, bunch of old fucks with uninteresting titles.
goodreads
that did pop up too but it wasn't the only site they were low scored on, some polish equivalent had them parked at similar score.
Besides
hating on score
These reflect quality for the most part besides overrating garbage, there's barely any gem that's rated so far below where it belongs.
I'll check it out (one day)
Thanks

you haven't read a book post-high school, faggot poseur
Dang, this is pretty overwhelming. Thanks a lot
Surprised LunaTranslator isn't listed in the OCR/tool though
Sauce of OP?
Real Imouto
Is there an actual Higurashi and Umineko connection? Cause I've seen much of umineko but Bern doesn't seem at all to be the same as Rika, but Bern's double is Erika Furudo so like is that just a reference? Why tf would Rika become a faggot ass witch.
No real connection, no.
I figured but everywhere I look related to when they cry stuff they bait it so I needed some closure.
Just references here and there. Some of the witches like Bernkastel have designs inspired by characters from Higurashi and there are about a half dozen references to Higurashi throughout.
There's no difference between that retarded TN and making a shitty, out of place pop culture reference, and you only think otherwise because politics have rotted your brain into thinking anything is good so long as it upsets "the other side".

I've always wanted to comb through chinksites but never know how to look for them. Last time I stumbled upon one it was all paywalled or like a regionblocked stuff
Seriously, I really appreciate the pointers
The MC of this VN deserves a Nobel Prize for most oblivious cuck in fiction
kfmax perhaps? I actually managed to reveal some download links after participating in their stupid browser game for some weeks, and then it's fucking baidu. In comparison these websites are a blessing, but who knows how long they will be up. If I were you I would download everything in your wishlist while you can, rare or not
Where do I find reverse NTR kino?
Bernkastel is a penname Rika used in Higurashi, but other than that there really is no direct connection.
Maybe, it's been a while. But yeah it was all Baidu links.
There are quite a lot of stuff I need to grab, but nothing's gonna happen while I get some shut-eye for a coupla hours. Probably.
How does he know what the sun smells like, did he go to outer space and got close to it to find out
Don't remember the name but in english it's something like animal house, there's an animation too.
C'mon man. [game title] + "download", 1st page result on Google
legendsworld.net
Japs can't concieve of concept.
NTR = BASED
Me in the middle right
based
Reverse NTR? You mean the woman getting cucked? Almost every romance VN with routes falls into this category. Every game with a childhood friend heroine has several different scenes where they're cucked into oblivion by different women.
i love that NTRfags are the only people that have to justify their kink with these self insert mental gymnastics
everyone else can just say
yeah i love big butts or mommy milkers
without being insecure
Got any good examples? I'm asking for a friend.
And what genre of games was this straight white male unafraid to say faggot translating, might I ask?
This has potential
I would say post late 80s. Writing is a little bit of a dying art. Creatives now try to learn to draw or animate to make cartoons instead of writing. The school system failing students by making them break down the plots of movies instead of books doesn't help either.
you should watch last episode of umineko for the lore
reverse ntr
Why did he do it, bros?
no, you're totally right. the 20th century was rife with classics in all forms of media because they were created by people traumatized by the state of the world or their direct descendants. you and i and our parents have all lived extremely comfortable lives and as a result we're boring. the only people nowadays with any interesting stories to tell are probably disabled african lesbians living under a pile of rubble somewhere in the gaza strip but i'm told they don't produce many novels.
holy based alarmo denier
They're too stupid to understand the uh but you're not supposed to self insert as the guy eating the shit image
>Anon Babble
live a life full of interesting traumas and misadventures and grand adventures
refuse to write about it because massive paranoia
Fuck readers they get fantasy slop and they'll like it!
VN writing is usually bad. But not because the quality of the prose or dialogue is bad. Because it has 50 hours of filler to pad it out. This is why I prefer simulation games and JRPGs. Though in the last two gens, JRPGs have also been going the way of filler. Since they're now hiring VN authors to do the scripts.
Nice try Jabul. You need a better ESL corrector if you dont wanna out yourself as brown.
Kikokugai
Jrpgs are complete garbage. 90% of those games are filler bare minimum.
That site never showed up in my region search result, I only got APK sites
Thanks tho, could come in handy
Thats flat out ntr, not reverse. MC is a sexless cuck
generalizations
There's bad games in every classification. If your only experience with JRPGs is Final Fantasy and Pokemon, then yeah it will seem that way.
He fries the brains of all the rapist jobbers after they piss their pants in fear of him
Trails is 90% filler
Any Jrpg with a "Fetch the special herb for the special disease" questline is shameless about its filler.
Pokemon is very lean in comparison. They are almost pure gameplay, at least before Gen 7
Random encounters are the worst brand of filler and only recently did JRPGs start leaving them behind. If anything I feel like it's getting better.
Trails is 90% filler
True. They're the extreme in it, along with Kingdom Hearts. This is why you should play Suikoden instead. Also better characters and story.
Pokemon is very lean in comparison. They are almost pure gameplay, at least before Gen 7
Gen 5 is when they became linear, story driven games.
Random encounters are the worst brand of filler
Having 50% or more of the game be filler dialogue is by far the worst thing. And JRPGs have only been getting worse with that. Western games as well. You'll buy a game and it's 30 hours of gameplay and 60 hours of cutscenes/dialogue. And 75% of the dialogue doesn't add anything to the world or characters. It's just characters spending 500 words to say something that could be explained in 20. This is expected in something like Final Fantasy. But it shouldn't have been the case in Bravely Default which was following the job/exploration model of older games. And even Dragon Quest 11 fell into this trap.
You're welcome.

Tbh any VN has better writing than any modern AAA game. Also spoilers
